Wait, no, what was said to be the number of the beast would have been 999 then, because the person was looking at a mirror and saw the reflection of three upside down 9's which turned it into 666. They then called it the number of the beast.
I'm sorry, I'm really confused at times, and do mess up facts! On this front, it's probably because my dad had received a lot of bibles and biblical research recently ('Normal' bibles, Satanic bibles, bible theories, missing books, etc.)

People confuse 666 with being 616 because 616 is said to be "the number of the beast"
As of 2005, I read on one website. "However, the number 9 is sacred to Satanism as it is the number of Satan himself and represents the ego, epochs and ages (The Table of Nine, Satanic Numerolgy, Draconis Blackthorne)." "As most people know, the number 666 is the number of the beast (see Revelation 13:18) and is evil, yet the occultists and New Agers love this number and consider it to be sacred." "The Triquetra symbolizing the three 6s of the Number of the Beast, 666" "Traditionally, the number 666 as dictated in the King James Version of the Bible has been identified with The Beast – the man that Satan will send as the second Messiah." "Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. (Revelation 13:18)" But then again, "we shall use the more up-to-date number, as deciphered from the third century Oxyrhynchus papyri – that of chi, iota, stigma or, 616."
So I guess the point of this is to show it depends on the versions you read, or how up to date you are on this matter. What I've learned through this preacher's studies is that he must have done what he did before the new information came about! http://www.redicecreations.com/specialreports/2006/02feb/triquetra.html But really, the bible has been changed multiple times, so we've reached a point where we could be completely off. The last version I heard they were making is one with no mentions of gay people, so people would back off of them

I do too, and across the road there's a Catholic girls school which I go to for certain classes, and I noticed that they DO have a 666 locker.

I've seen a different post about something similar except the reason the school skipped the number was because every year someone would set the locker on fire so they just removed it
666 = Satan
616 = number of the beast
